Being Vague and Unfocused
Thierry: I’m pumped and ready to help paint the community center this weekend. What time are we supposed to get there in the morning?
Bonnie: I’m not sure. Sophia was a little vague about that. She told people to show up when they can make it.
Thierry: That doesn’t sound like an auspicious 1 start. How many people are supposed to be there?
Bonnie: I’m a little fuzzy on that, too. Sophia didn’t have a sign- up sheet. She just told people to show up if they could.
Thierry: I hate to say it, but Sophia is the worst person to be organizing this. Her heart is in the right place, but her head is in the clouds. I don’t think I’ve ever met a more absentminded person.
Bonnie: I know what you mean. She always seems to be daydreaming 2.
Thierry: I’m going to call her right now and pin her down. She needs to attend to the nitty- gritty if this is project is going to get done.
Bonnie: What if she’s as vague as she usually is?
Thierry: I’ll try speaking to her on a different frequency: Earth to Sophia, Earth to Sophia...
